Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Craigrothie. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KY15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Craigrothie

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Craigrothie?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Repairing versus replacing in Craigrothie

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
